For seventeen months, the workers of the municipal elementary school of music in Struga have not received a salary. There is no salary for the teachers working in the school since its opening, but also for those who have been employed in the meantime. The school opened with pomp, at the height of the election campaign in September of the year 2021.

The director says that they have received a promise that the salary problem will be resolved, but they also expect to receive approval for the employment of teachers.

Those teachers don't get paid, and we are really afraid, because we might lose something that is well done for children, if those relations between the school are not fixed, school founders and other state authorities, who should be compensated for what they invest, if this school is extinguished, it will be to the detriment of our children", tha Dejan Lazareski-prind.
